The advantage of using nginx here instead of your firewall/iptables is that you'll have an easier time checking for false-positives in logs (in case I fucked up); the bots follow a predictable pattern (GET / then GET /auth/sign_up) while real traffic would stand out.

**Requesting feedback from Berliners interested in attending an anti-gentrification open data event happening later this month. Boosts appreciated! This isn't just for techies. For anyone who wants to use data to fight gentrification**

1. Would you be more likely to attend on a week night for 2 hours or on a weekend day for a bit longer?

2. Would you be interested in joining a doodle for planning times that most people could come?

3. Would you be interested in a mailing list, chat, or some way of communication, before the first meeting? (Just curious, it's not always needed!)
